Download or read book 55 Corrective Exercises for Horses written by Jec Aristotle Ballou and published by Trafalgar Square Books. This book was released on 2019-01-04 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A highly illustrated guide to simple yet effective methods for keeping horses sound, healthy, and performing their best. Over time, horses (like people) acquire postural habits, compensate for soreness and injury, and develop poor movement patterns. This limits performance ability, causes unsoundness and health issues, and ultimately undermines the horse's overall well–being. Jec Aristotle Ballou has made a name for herself advocating for the horse and providing sensible instruction in his schooling, conditioning, and care. Her bestselling books and popular clinics are designed to enable any horse person to correctly apply proven principles that bring measurable progress while avoiding boredom and confusion. In her latest collection of mounted and unmounted corrective exercises, Ballou demonstrates how we can actively work to improve the horse's posture and movement, whether he is: An active performance or pleasure mount. An aging or older horse that benefits from gentle exercise. A horse being rehabilitated following injury, illness, or lack of conditioning. Ballou's positive cross–training techniques are free of shortcuts, and her guidelines for analyzing the horse's posture and way of going help readers gain a new awareness of the equine body. Applicable for all disciplines and full of quality color photographs to explain the exercises, this is an integral collection that optimizes how the horse uses his body and helps ensure he stays sounder and healthier for more years of his life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Standard Horse Book: Comprising the Taming, Controlling and Educating of Unbroken and Vicious Horses, and How to Break Up Bad Habits and Vices; The Diseases of Horses and Their Remedies When man first came to know the horse he had a special type. He often goes back toward that type now. This original horse was a dun colored animal, inclined to stripes, much like his present brother, the zebra. In our southwest, where he has in some cases gone wild again, a reversion to this ancient type is common. He was an animal difficult to tame, as the zebra is, but this taming was first effected in times unknown. So far as we are concerned, man has always known the horse tame, and a slave. He and the earliest records of human history go together. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
